A computer-implemented method of predicting an external actor trajectory comprises receiving, at a computer, sensor inputs for detecting and tracking an external actor; applying object tracking to the sensor inputs, in order track the external actor, and thereby determine an observed trace of the external actor over a time interval; determining a set of available goals for the external actor; for each of the available goals, determining an expected trajectory model; and comparing the observed trace of the external actor with the expected trajectory model for each of the available goals, to determine a likelihood of that goal.
